Anthony Thieme - (1888-1954)

Thieme is one of only a handful of American marine and landscape painters working in the first half of the twentyeth century whose art occupies the walls of museums and private collections. He was honored with numerous awards during his career.  Thieme's favorite subjects were the historic fishing ports on the north shore of Massachusetts (Cape Ann) His admiration for the gleaming  colors and the lyric quality of the marine subjects dominated his style. Thieme said "A good landscape painter must paint fast to catch the light of any hour. Unless you know what to put in, what to leave out, the result is a mess"

I received this painting from a local Maine artist. It has been in his family since 1943 and is "fresh to the market.

The painting is signed (lower right) and is titled "Near the Warf"
